What's great about it: Easy to manuever
What's not so great: Difficult to get to stand in upright position when not in use, until I figured it out.
I shopped and researched vacuum cleaners for some time. I was looking for the best price. Already owned a dyson for over 10 years and was determined to replace mine with a better updated model. This one was perfect for my needs. Hand to replace my other one because the electrical cord was damaged.

What's great about it: Suction on hardwood and carpet. Long cord. Easy to use.
What's not so great: The cord is manual, so no automatic retraction.
I bought this to replace the DC25 that I gave to my son. That was a terrific product, so I thought why not just get another one. I choose this because it was a little larger and had more power. The first time I used it, my wife commented that the oriental rugs looked cleaner, and she didn't know that I had used a new product. The cord is much longer than the last one, so now I can plug it in at one place and vacuum the living room, kitchen, breakfast room, and dining room. I had to plug the old vacuum in each of those rooms. So, it cleans better, is larger, so it cleans a larger area faster, and it has a longer cord that allows me to reach a lot of areas without moving the cord. It is great!

Pricey, but well worth it. Dyson stands by there product. Had defective wand, called company and was sent new one quickly. Could not believe the difference with suction power and how much dog hair was left in my carpet from old vacuum.

What's great about it: Easy to set up, does an excellent job picking stuff up
What's not so great: Looks flimsy
Even after vacuuming our house with our old vacuum, it still didn't seem clean. We decided to try the Dyson as we had heard good things about it. We vacuumed, shampooed and then ran the Roomba. After all three were done, we ran the Dyson over the living room. We had to empty the container 4 times. It works great on deep ground in dirt and being the owner of a labrador and German shorthair, we were amazed by how well it picked up pet hair. Don't let the price scare you off, its a great product

What's great about it: No loss of suction, gets even pet hair up easily on area rugs
What's not so great: Somewhat hard to steer, heavy, construction doesn't feel tight
Dyson has quite the reputation, and for the most part it holds true. The unit does not lose suction, and even on small oriental area rugs gets up pet hair without sucking up the rug itself. I was amazed at how fast the chamber filled up with stuff, on a large area rug I considered clean. Emptying the canister is easy too. The ball steering takes some getting used to, and can require some strength in your wrist to get it to go where you want it to. This is due to the weight (we were used to an Oreck, much lighter and generally worked well). Although the assembly is designed well, some of the plastic parts feel "loose", and hopefully will last. The tube extension is not convenient, as you have to drag the heavy vacuum along. The Oreck came with a small carry vacuum which was a much better solution. Overall it really picks up well, as advertised. The steering and weight could be improved, which is why I rate it overall as just "good" not "excellent". That and the price, since is is a lot more expensive than other similar units.

What's great about it: Performance is phenomenal.
What's not so great: Small dust canister and no auto cord retractor
Let me say that this vacuum is awesome and is worth every penny. In no way do the cons outweigh the pros. The commercial that dyson runs stating that emptying the dust canister more frequently is absolutely true but in all respects that's a good thing. This vacuum is able to pick up more dust/etc in the carpet than my previous three vacuums I bought. I completely regret not buying this vacuum first and saving the $400 dollars I spent on the other vacuums. It maneuvers like a champ and is one of the best vacuums I own. It amazes me on how much stuff this vacuum gets. $600 is steep for a vacuum but with a 5 year warranty that dyson stands behind shows that they believe in their products. Try it out for yourself worse comes to worse, return it.
